While I don't particularly find much use for most of HP's premium paper line, their glossy papers offer a sufficiently distinct printing experience that one can easily find a use for them. They make excellent paper for final copies of work you intend to display, or even for stuff you merely intend to archive.

This glossy, however, is not particularly recommendable because of its low value-for-money. Only ten sheets are available here. For virtually the same price you can get their professional brochure & flyer paper, which is double-sided and comes in a 50-pack. I therefore can't see an economic rationale to buying this otherwise excellent paper. Look for HP product number C6817A instead.

What fun are your digital pictures if you can't print some of them and take them along?

Thats exactly what I do sometimes and this paper gives me exactly what I need. This glossy paper gives my printed pictures quality as sharp as my computer displays them. Combined with a quality printer ( i use an HP 842C ), colors come out vivid and the clarity is very nice.

Sure its expensive, but if you want to print your digital pictures then this is the paper for you. Hope this helps.

while evaluating and choosing a paper product, an expert would look for the scientific weight (metric g/m²). Your packaging, lists and samples are missing this information. Also it would be good to know whether a piece of paper is acide free (archival) or not. Maybe the luminocity level???
